More quotes by Rumi
Anyone who knows me, should learn to know me again For I am like the Moon, you will see me with new face everyday.
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
There is an original inside me.
Rumi
The breath of the flute player: does it belong to the flute?
Rumi
There's no one with intelligence in this town except that man over there playing with the children, the one riding the stick horse. He has keen, fiery insight and vast dignity like the night sky, but he conceals it in the madness of child's play.
Rumi
The way to heaven is within. Shake the wings of love-when love's wings have become strong, there is no need to trouble about a ladder.
Rumi
The lover never despairs. For a committed heart everything is possible.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
Don't dismiss the heart, even if it's filled with sorrow. God's treasures are buried in broken hearts.
Rumi
Mount the stallion of love and do not fear the path, love’s stallion knows the way exactly. With one leap, Love’s horse will carry you home.
Rumi
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
Rumi
If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
When you lose all sense of self the bonds of a thousands chains will vanish. Lose yourself completely, return to the root of the root of your own soul.
Rumi
I lost my hat while gazing at the moon, and then I lost my mind.
Rumi
Hungry, you're a dog, angry and bad-natured. having eaten your fill, you become a carcass you lie down like a wall, senseless. At one time a dog, at another time a carcass, how will you run with lions, or follow the saints?
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
Everything about yesterday has gone with yesterday. Today, it is needed to say new things.
Rumi
There is a sun within every person.
Rumi
